Your car looks very nice indeed but a word of forewarning - even though you don't have white doors, with the addition of the spotlights and antenna to that particular combination of colors, at some point you should expect to gain some measure of unwanted attention from LE out on the road.
Maybe you'll be able to finish it off as a full restoration someday and dedicate it to that duty. More four-eyed SSPs at shows are always a welcome sight! |

I also have the CHP lights on a separate fuse block that has the main fuse near the battery. I remove that fuse to make the lights inoperable while on the road (plus it will keep me from melting another cover if the light gets bumped on). Not only does my CHP Mustang meet the letter of the law here in Delaware, it exceeds the statutes. I figure it's best to err on the side of caution.

Thanks for the heads-up, guys. The spotlights aren't functional when I drive or when parked in the garage, but I'll look into the covers.
Have you been pulled over in your SSP, Michael (I imagine you cover over your decals)? Do you drive it to shows? |

Yes, I do drive it to shows and yes I have been pulled over. All lights (including spots) and decals are covered and "Not In Service" signage displayed. Not all officers know about this hobby or the intentions of owners of restored vehicles and some don't really even like seeing these types of vehicles being used for drivers so be careful out there and use plenty of common sense. Also, read through all the posts in the forums on this and other like sites as this subject has been discussed at length numerous times and there are many good viewpoints on it you should be aware of.

Thanks, Michael. I found some good threads on the subject.
Here's another picture until I get my next photo session. |

Curious - any new pics of this car or progress on the resto? Keep 'em coming!
Looks fantastic and is inspiring me to get going on mine again.

This is inspiring me to get off my rump and start my own 85 CHP project.
